    Great shots.

    I met you briefly in front of the H.A.M.B. tent.

    Your photo's tell a great story. Almost on par with HRLC but hers usually include picutures of the great food. Love that Texas food!

    Thanks for taking the time and effort to post all of those pictures. Even those of us who attended, appreciate it.

    Well done.

    The Rivi was Mr. Rod Powell's pick for the show. There were so many nice cars there this year and that Buick was one of my favorites. Great pictures and nice to meet you Nick.

    Nick,
    Great time, we enjoyed talking with you at the Austin S.S. party. After looking at your pictures I am reliving it all over again. Next year we are driving, we spent 12 hours in the airport for a 2.5 hour flight back to Chicago. That sucked....but worth every minute at the Round Up.

    Great photos, great coverage of a great event. Would like to make it sometime. I guess saying Tulsa's too far to drive is B.S.

    Oh, by the way looks like Uncle John's a HAWKEYE! Way to go Uncle John. I'm from the other end of Highway 34, (Fairfield) but got out of cold country in 1967. Again great pics, hope to make it some time.

    It was good to meet you along with a lot of other HAMBERS. Thanks for the great pics. It would have taken me about 2 weeks and 22&1/2 hours to post that many pics. Dont know how you do it. I saw better coverage from your pics & I was there. Thanks again and I'll see you on the road.

    That's pretty crazy (and cool!) that you saw us on the road!

    ...glad you guys had a good time! Hopefully there'll be more fun trips this summer.

    I'm pretty surprised that I remembered her name, too! I'm usually not too good at that :)

    That's funny you mention the exhaust on John's car - we talked about putting different mufflers on it, but it is actually nice to not have exhaust drone going down the road...

    It was nice to meet you, too! --see ya at the Pileup.

    Haha... you mean cars or women?! :D

    Yeah, Swander's Coupe is awesome, and he puts some miles on it! I finally got a chance to meet him. Also, I took some more detailed chassis photos, since I'm planning on doing a similar one.

    Nice to meet you, too! See you at the Pileup...

    Had a good time, Ken! Thanks for waiting for us on Thursday morning -- see ya at the HAMB Drags!

    Great to meet you, too! I'll see you at the HAMB Drags for sure!

    It was good to meet you, too, and man I love your Riviera!
     
  29. Nick-
    Was great to finally meet you. Enjoyed the pics. I thought I had seen them all but there were some I missed.
    When we left Austin we headed south to San Antonio, then Carlsbad, then Roswell, then Sante Fe, then Pueblo and then on home. We know every bug between Austin and home personally now as they are plastered on the front of our truck. We put over 2800 miles on the truck on this trip and had no problems although New Mexico does owe us for roadgrader services on a "road" they were repairing.
    Thanks again for the pictures and look forward to seeing you again.
    Later,
    Dick
